Dishonored Selkie

I picked up Dishonored half-off on Steam’s holiday sale and have been really enjoying it. I love the ugly character designs and gritty world aesthetic.

(I also was not wholly sure about Corvo’s outfit but I figure he’d dress well yet in dark colors.)

I have not finished the game yet so no spoilers, please. Just completed the Masquerade Ball mission.

I am trying to play as non-lethal as I can since one of the loading screen tips said body count affects the ending (sleep darts, choke holds, blinking away or possessing hagfish if caught, etc. Occasional cheating by re-loading saves if I am forced to kill a bunch of people.) My role-play philosophy is that there’s no point killing a bunch of policeman just doing their jobs in my efforts to prove my innocence.

My husband asked me if I wanted Dishonored or Skyrim for Christmas when it came to the steam sale; I told him Skyrim, mainly because of the new expansion where I can build my own home; I’m a sucker for “player housing” type things in games; then it turned out my PC needed a new video card, so I haven’t played much of it cause it runs choppy.

I watched a launch night let’s play of the first bit of Dishonored when it came out; I seriously want it, but I will be patient and wait; maybe the steam summer sale.

i just finished this game, dave your right the non-lethal is much more difficult. but so much fun the best skills are blink 2, possession 2 and bend time 2 they can help you take out enemies or run even after you have alerted them. its always nice to posses the guard that just found you before he shouts out, walk him away from the group, then knock him out while hes retching.
